It’s with a heavy heart that we share with you our decision to shut down the Boss Bunnies NFT project for future development. We are truly appreciative of all of our supporters who stuck with us till now, however we come to this decision as our main purpose for doing this project is no longer being achieved and the project is now doing more harm than good, both to ourselves and to all of our community members.

The reason we started Boss Bunnies NFT was a very simple one: we wanted to spread joy and happiness through sharing our artwork with the NFT community. That is the reason we switched our project to a free mint, because we wanted to share the art and make it as easy as possible for those wanting to break into the NFT space to be able to mint their very first tokens.

From day one we have always been completely transparent and truthful: that we are a 2 person team, that we have day jobs, that this project came to be as a result of our hobbies, that our time and money resources are limited etc. We had every intention to follow through with the future roadmap and build something great together, but we were also very clear through our website and communications that any future development would hinge on the treasury funds earned as a percentage of royalties. There are all sorts of projects in the NFT space nowadays: from genius grade 5 students learning to code all the way to huge companies like Nike. As NFT investors ourselves, we understand the need to do our own research and manage our own expectations with the information that’s been made publicly available by each team. As creators, we can’t control if people read about the project, we can only try our best to make the information available and clear. On the transparency side of things, we’ve made everything available through our website, social media accounts, and Terms of Use agreement. To this day we’ve followed our roadmap: we released Boss Bunnies Beats music productions and merchandise store all on time and according to what was outlined on our website. Community voting was only promised for treasury fund allocation but we wanted to include you guys early in other decisions. We thought it would be a good experience for everyone. We moved up the reveal date because we didn’t want to give holders the false sense of expectations and tensions rising as we knew that a lot of our minters were newcomers to NFTs. We don’t pump up our project to be more than what it is because that would be disingenuous.

However with all of the impatience, unrealistic expectations of how much time we “should” be dedicating to this project, and general negativity in the Discord, we are struggling to find any joy within ourselves to want to create anything. What used to be a fun hobby has now become shackles to us and even reading through the chats are becoming increasingly toxic and suffocating. NFTs were originally just a space for artists to finally be able to share their artwork with the world digitally with unique ownership verification. We ask ourselves, when did it become so toxic where community members are attacking creators and each other personally?

It pains us to see our supporters getting attacked in chat, having to stand up for us, and fight with haters. Of course, we understand that there are haters in every project, but seeing how much time people spend fighting each other in the Discord and how it’s affecting some of your mental health was a clear indication that this project is no longer doing what we had set out for it to do. For the haters out there, if you want to call this a rug, we can’t stop you, but we know in our own hearts that we were honest, genuine, and upheld our integrity during every step of the project because that’s who we are as individuals. Some people create NFTs with dreams to make millions, but that’s not us, otherwise we would have never chosen to make our project a free mint. Ultimately people can choose to think what they want to think and we can’t control that, but we have peace in our hearts knowing that we never compromised our values.

Going forward:

Bunnies — The bunny tokens are here to stay, they may be trading, or not, for 0 ETH, or more, but the art itself will remain. We would never burn your tokens or delete your images on the back end. We hope that the art itself can bring some of you a little bit of joy.

Royalties — We are decreasing royalty percentages from 10% to 8%. The difference would have been what went into Boss Bunnies Treasury, however token holders can consider this as a cost savings and our way of giving back. We are not zeroing out royalties because we believe that all artists should be compensated for their work.

Socials — Discord will be shut down immediately. There’s enough toxicity as it is in the Discord and we don’t want any more of that to spread. Twitter will still be up for the next 24 hours but will be deactivated after that.

Website — Our website will remain open. The tokens are still out on the blockchain and our legal counsel has advised that we ensure that our Terms of Use are publicly available. We have updated some of the information on the website to reflect the fact that there will no longer be any further development in the project.

Treasury — For the money that’s in the Boss Bunnies Treasury right now, we will use it to sweep the floor one last time. There isn’t a lot in the treasury, but we have no intention to take it for ourselves. Accounting for gas prices, even if we can only sweep a handful of tokens, we feel that this is the best thing we can do.

Finally, if you’ve read until this point, we just want to say thank you to all of our wonderful supporters in the community. This project has been a huge learning experience for us, and we hope that it has been for some of you as well. Stay safe and healthy, and try to stay positive out there.

Thanks for always keepin it real.

As the creators of Boss Bunnies NFT, we’ve always had high aspirations for the project, however the idea of gifting Boss Bunnies to the people and ultimately serve a higher purpose came to us during the QA process.

Firstly, yes, we had a QA process because we wanted to make sure that each and every single one of the 10,001 bunnies looked top notch for the community that was already very excited for them. But as we were looking through each of those bunnies, the thought of “what if someone really wanted a Boss Bunnies NFT, but just couldn’t afford one?” crept up. We’ve always said that Boss Bunnies NFT is a family friendly project that’s here to spread joy and we quickly realized that pricing was going to be a barrier for some members of the community. Thus with much consideration, we’ve decided to gift Boss Bunnies so that anyone who wanted one could get one. This doesn’t mean that we’re done with the project, in fact by doing this, we are opening up a whole new world of possibilities in where the Boss Bunnies ecosystem can go, and we can’t wait to share it with you!

For those of us interested in the details, here’s how it’s going to work:

· Minting — Minting will be free, exactly 0 ETH, just pay gas fees.

· Max Mint — We’re setting max mint to 1 per wallet because we want to do our best in ensuring that everyone who wants a bunny can get one. If you want to collect more Boss Bunnies NFTs, there’s no limit as to how many you can trade through the secondary market.

· Minting Date — Public Mint will remain the same: Feb 11, 2022 20:00 UTC

· Pre-Mint — For those of you who were the lucky winners of WL spots, congratulations! We’re planning our Pre-Mint for WL holders 1 day before the public mint (time TBA) which means you’re guaranteed a free mint before anyone else.

· More WL Spots? — You bet. We’re planning more WL spot giveaways in the next couple of weeks so be sure to keep your eye out and enter for those! We also want to reward those who are active drivers in the Boss Bunnies Community so we’re rolling out a new way for you to earn a WL spot in our discord! Check out the #get-on-whitelist section of our discord page.

· Royalties — Royalties are set at 10% which means we will take 10% of the sale price on any Boss Bunnies NFTs traded on the secondary market. Here’s how that royalty will be used:

· 20% will be going to the Boss Bunnies Treasury to fund the future development of the Boss Bunnies ecosystem

· 10% will be donated to support those in need through local charities with global efforts

· The remaining will be going to the Boss Bunnies team to cover costs incurred for the creation and development of Boss Bunnies NFT Gen 1

The future of Boss Bunnies NFT (dependent on treasury funds for development):

Boss Bunnies NFT tokens will be a utility token that grant holders exclusive access to deciding the use of the Boss Bunnies Treasury and direction of the Boss Bunnies ecosystem. A few items we are already thinking of include:

· $BOSSVIBES Currency — Depending on the rarity level, your Boss Bunnies NFT will exude 1–5 $BOSSVIBES per day. These $BOSSVIBES will grant token holders exclusive access and rewards in the Boss Bunnies ecosystem.

· Gen 2 and Breeding — If you hold a Boss Bunnies Gen 1 token when our Gen 2 drops, you may be in for a surprise! Did someone say mini bunny?

More ideas on the development of the future of Boss Bunnies will be shared and taken to vote through Snapshot so that token holders can decide what happens next!

Finally, Boss Bunnies NFT has truly been a labour of love and we are so thankful for the support we’ve received from our community members, collaboration partners, and our friends in the NFT space. While the decision to do free mints was not one we take lightly, it was a decision we came to very naturally. At the end of the day, we just want to share this amazing artwork with everyone, and work together to create something that will last forever on the blockchain.

Cheers,

HUBHUB & WUBWUB

So you’ve heard about the adorable bunnies dropping into the NFT community and you’re thinking, “Gee, I wonder what the story is behind those Boss Bunnies?” Well, you’ve come to the right place.

Boss Bunnies are a collection of 10,001 collectible NFTs featuring the coolest bunny on the block — the blockchain block, that is.

The Boss Bunnies are created by HUBHUB and WUBWUB, a Canadian-based husband and wife duo who are passionate about blockchain and NFTs. HUBHUB is the big brains when it comes to ideation and development while WUBWUB has over 15 years of art experience, originating from a background in sketching and oil painting. When it comes to the Boss Bunnies, this was really a labour of love. Months were spent selecting the colour palette, perfecting the line weight, and developing the best shape of the head, ears, and shoulders. The end result? An unmistakably boss bunny that they’re proud to share with the NFT community.

Boss Bunnies have over 440,000 combination traits made up of different accessories and characteristics which will only be available for Gen 1! While all Boss Bunnies are unique and special, these traits contribute to each bunny’s rarity through a point system. The rarity of the bunny will also determine the background they sit on — which bunny will you get?

Through the Boss Bunnies NFT, there is an opportunity for anyone to become a part of the Boss Bunnies community and play a part in deciding the future development, and growth of the Boss Bunnies. The benefits of owning a Boss Bunnies NFT doesn’t just stop at being able to use them for a cool profile picture. It allows holders to participate in discussions and polls to exercise their voice in the direction of Boss Bunnies going forward. Boss Bunnies owners will also have exclusive access community giveaways and more!

Be sure to join the Twitter and Discord communities and share your thoughts and ideas with others who are excited about the Boss Bunnies. We look forward to seeing you on the block!
